An update for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.3.0 that
fixes one security issue is now available from the Red Hat Customer Portal.

Details
Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 is a platform for Java
applications based on JBoss Application Server 7.
It was found that the fix for CVE-2012-0818 was incomplete: external
parameter entities were not disabled when the
resteasy.document.expand.entity.references parameter was set to false.
A remote attacker able to send XML requests to a RESTEasy endpoint could
use this flaw to read files accessible to the user running the application
server, and potentially perform other more advanced XXE attacks.
(CVE-2014-3490)
This issue was discovered by David Jorm of Red Hat Product Security.
All users of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.3.0 as
provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to apply this update.
